Potassium is excreted (or flushed out of your system) by your kidneys. Any damage to your kidneys, when they are not working properly, may cause an increase in potassium levels leading to hyperkalemia.As seen with tumor lysis syndrome-when you receive chemotherapy, the drugs will act by breaking down the tumor cells. Some medications that contain potassium, or medications that preserve the amount of potassium that is excreted through your kidneys, can cause hyperkalemia. 2  These may include Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, such as Lisinopril, or potassium-sparing diuretics, such as Spironolactone (e.g., Aldactone).
Diseases of the adrenal gland (such as Addison's disease, that causes a decreased aldosterone secretion) lead to a decrease in kidney excretion of potassium resulting in hyperkalemia. Examples of medications that may lead to elevated potassium levels include: 1  nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, 2  ACE inhibitors, 3  Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), and.  some types of diuretics.
